"They did a great job! My roof looks great! Reliable and kept me well informed about everything. They kept cost in mind and cleaned up nicely after themselves. Serge even came out late to tarp the roof until it could get repaired so that I didnâ t have any further damage to the house waiting for the roof. They were very nice to work with. Great people. I canâ t say enough good things about them!"

"Mark did an excellent job. He cares about his work and wants to make sure you are satisfied. While providing and estimate he took note of a gutter that needed to be replaced and gave me an excellent price. I asked about a chimney cap and he came back to do that as well. I was more than pleased with the services provided and would definitely hire again!"

"Stuart showed up when he said he would.  Went on the roof... came back down - reported what needed to be done.  Replaced the rubber thingys that day.  all was good.  Thank You  (Now with that said.. I'm waiting for a really good rain to make sure the leak is fixed but... I'm pretty confident it will be.)

"

This was a $119 big deal service for lawn treatment and overseeding. For the most part they did what they were supposed to do except for the fact that we had had a lot of rain in October and were about to get out of the fall season to be able to aerate and seed. They were behind on their jobs because they could not do it because of the weather. When the weather finally cleared up they were in a rush to do it and it started raining the minute they got here. They said they could do it if I wanted done and I did not know any better because I have never core aerated the lawn myself, but as they were doing it and as they were leaving the rain was so heavy that it filled all the holes right back in and it washed the seed away. The people were younger and not quite as experienced. I kind of feel like the owner or somebody should have told me as badly as I wanted it done it would have been a waste of my money. A ton of seed washed into my neighbor's yard. They were really nice and were out working in the pouring rain trying to get it done as quick as they could but they should have realized that it was going to do nothing. The price would have been fair if I had gotten anything for it. They did something that they should not have done. They were pretty good about calling and letting me know it was going to be a little time because of the weather. I don't think anyone ever called back asking how it had gone. They were punctual.

"They were reasonable in pricing. But, sometimes they were a bit slow in their work and they should try to keep up their appointments. But, overall they did a fairly good job. They could have done even better."

Glass Block questions, answered by experts

You can still see vaguely into some types of glass block windows at night. Although there won’t be clear definitions, passersby may still see shapes, shadows, and movement through the glass. If you want complete privacy, consider installing diamond glass block windows rather than the typical clear or wavy glass blocks.

New glass costs anywhere from $3 to $100 per square foot. More specifically, tempered and insulated glass—a common option for sliding glass doors—costs between $10 and $14 per square foot.

Although glass block windows are made of multiple layers of thick glass, they can still break. If an individual block shatters, it can be removed and replaced, but this is a job for a window repair professional. The project is often complex and may require breaking the block further for removal. Do not attempt to handle it yourself, as the broken glass can be dangerously sharp. A professional will have the necessary tools and expertise to replace the broken glass block quickly and safely. Before hiring, confirm that the repair pro has experience with this specific type of window.

Glass block installation can be relatively expensive due to the range of material costs and the labor time to assemble this type of specialty window. The process proceeds slowly as the glass does not absorb moisture from mortar and silicone caulk takes longer to harden, leaving spacers to hold up the structure until the caulk or mortar begins to cure. Plus, if your current windows have structural issues or damage, you’ll need to repair them before beginning the project, increasing your bottom line. 

Installing glass block windows has benefits and disadvantages, as with most materials. The pros and cons can vary depending on the type of glass block and the window location.

Pros

  • Maintains privacy while letting light into the bathroom

  • Energy efficient

  • Sealed to prevent drafts

  • Aesthetically pleasing

  • Strong and secure

Cons

  • Costly to install

  • Challenging installation

  • Challenging repair
